We are having WAY too much fun in class this week…reading to puppies…(still in FULL force) and crafting it up for Mother’s Day (Yippee!) It’s just been a whirlwind…oh wait. It’s ONLY Tuesday!!!
We created vases for mom!
On Friday I will bring in some cute little daisies to put in them when students take them home to mom!
We also made lemon oil body scrub for mom to use in the shower! I LOVE this stuff. I use it every time I shower.
We have been working on our mother’s day writing since last week and today we put our cards together. These moms are GORGEOUS! no?

I just adore those cards! Any time a child draws a big portrait, it just tickles me! The jars are gorgeous, too!

Precious. There is something about the smell of lemon that makes everything right and fresh and clean with the world. The art looks great especially with the black pen tracing that really makes mom pop out!

Super cute! I love lemon oil body scrub. The Mom's are going to be so excited, not your usual hand print butterfly. 🙂

Everything looks so fantastic!! I love those cards!! We make those vases every year and they always look so bright and pretty. I will have to look into the body scrub!! Thanks for sharing:)

I love your ideas! Onbe question – where do you get the glass jars for the vases and the tupperware for the scrub? I noticed they were all different sizes/shapes so do you ask the kids to bring them in? By the way, bought your Mother's Day packet and love it!

Hi Jennifer!
I save glass jars all year knowing I am going to use it. But the first time I did this I bought baby food jars and just saved the food in a container for a friend. The ziplocs I just picked up this week. I spent 8 dollars to get my entire class a container for their scrub.
Such beautiful gifts and cards!

Love the body scrub! How much of everything do you need to purchase for the whole class?
If you click the mother's day activities link you can get the instructions. 🙂
We already made our Mother's Day gifts, but if there's time… I'm SO adding this. I LOVE it!

I loved reading this Reagan–you do the coolest things! What nice Mother's Day gifts!
Great ideas. I have done the stained glass vases before, but I really want to try the body scrubs next year. Thank you for sharing the idea! Stop by and visit my blog – it's still very new 🙂
